You won't believe who I just met!! part 2

**Warning, this is the second part of the very true story that happened to me on Saturday May 10th 2008, so please read the blog entitled "You won't believe who I just met!!!" FIRST**




So what was it that this so-called Reptoid told me??

First thing, he told me that him and I weren't that much different, he explained that humanoids and reptoids both came from the monkey. And millions of years ago some of them chose to live on land while others were more comfortable living in the caves beneath the earth's crust. Humans then began to evolve into what we are today, and the reptoids began to evolve and to adapt to their living conditions.

He proceeded to explain that his race was in bad shape and were slowly dying out, and that humans were the cause of their downfall...

Humans? But why? What were we doing that could harm them?

By now, all of you readers are probably thinking, oh this "Rob guy" is just writing a social commentary involving a weird creature that lives underground whose entire Reptoid Race is struggling because of all the pollutants, chemicals, and poisons in the dirt etc…etc. Or, this story is just trying to make a point about saving the world from pollution, global warming, running out of energy, water, oxygen, food, rainforests etc…. Just more of that hippie, environmentalist, left wing, Al Gore propaganda, right?

Wrong.

When I asked how we could possibly be the cause of the decline of the reptoid race, he told me that we weren't using enough oil.


"You mean we're using too much oil, right?" I responded.


"No, not enough! There is so much of that stuff down there, and as our population increases our space needs to increase! But you people aren't pumping up anything anymore cause the gas prices keep sky rocketing! That is criminal! Everything seemed to be going so well, then came the problem with the oil and you people trying to clean everything up and preserve natural recources, well it's those natural resources that we don't want! We can't live and grow with that stuff in our way!! The earth was designed specifically for people to use, not to screw with your heads! All those alertists and crazies must be stopped! For the sake of reptoidity!!!

"You mean us trying to be green, us trying to save the planet, is harming you? That doesn't make much sense" I said.


He went on to explain that reptoids have a type of kryptonite (for lack of a better word), a weakness, something that keeps them from progressing. And this weakness is oil and natural resources that are found beneath the earths crust.

He said that we need to stop using hybrid vehicles, stop using the frontrunner and start buying up more oil. Stop recycling, stop "being green" stop wasting money on "organic" food. He told me that we should not worry about trying to save the earth, and that we should use up as much energy as possible. He then questioned the intelligence of humanity, and became slightly condescending….

"Do you people really believe you can do anything to save the earth? Do you think recycling a piece of plastic is really going to help? And those hybrid vehicles?! Common sense could tell you that it's just a waste of money! And this global warming thing that's got all you people riled up? Ha ha! You people actually believe you can stop the polar ice caps from melting?!!!! That'll happen millions of years from now, and believe me, humanity has much more important things to worry about than that! Please don't tell me that you are buying into the claims that the temperature is getting hotter every year?!!! Anybody can look at the records for themselves and see that's not true. It's pathetic!"

He then apologized for losing his temper with me…

"I know there is nothing you can do instantly about the worlds economy and oil problems, but please do whatever it takes!

Then came the scary part, the threat. Reptoids have the power to cause earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis and if things don't get better, more of these so-called natural disasters will happen. He explained that, yes it was kind of a threat, but reptoids can prevent these devastations from happening, if the Reptoids all die then the earth would ultimately be destroyed anyway by earthquakes, volcanoes, and tsunamis that are normally controlled by the Reptoids.…. So in fact humanity relies on the Reptoids for safety without even knowing it!

When we both heard the frontrunner approaching he shared with me a last bit of advice, then he propped me up (remember, I was laying on the ground listening to this amazing creature's tale) and he dusted the dirt off my back….He then put his hand out for me to shake. I looked at it for a moment before I decided to give him my hand. He looked at me directly in the eyes as if he was looking into my soul and said,

"You must not forget our discussion. I am counting on you to take this information to the world. You must get it out there and make it known that humanity must change! And you're the one that will cause this great change, this reformation, this new beginning! I have done my duty here, and this is all I can do. But now I must return. You are a good man and I have faith that you will make it happen! The lives of not only my people, but also the lives of all humanity are in your hands!"


He then proceeded to slither away into the shadows…


I don't know if I'll ever see the reptoid named Obed again but I certainly will never forget what he told me…I ran back to the train station and jumped on the frontrunner and as I rode home I pondered and tried to digest the incredible information that this being had told me and the responsibility that had been put upon my shoulders…….From now on FOR THE SAKE OF HUMANITY....I will not ride the frontrunner, I will buy a full size hummer, I will waste electricity, I will not recycle, I will not be "green" or follow any of that crap. I will not worry about global warming. I will do all of this not for myself but for all of you, and for all of the wonderful creatures that live beneath the earth.



Please email this to as many people as you can! Take on this great responsibility by getting out there and making your voice heard! Do whatever it takes to save our future and the future of the Reptoids!

Ha ha just kidding.








PEOPLE ACTUALLY BELIEVE IN REPTOIDS!!!! GO AHEAD GOOGLE IT!!!

You won't believe who I just met!!!! part 1

Work last night was busy and I wasn't able to get off until very late. This ended up being a problem because I needed to catch the frontrunner to get home. I finally was able to leave work at 10:15 and the frontrunner leaves Salt Lake at 10:25. I had 10 minutes to run 6 or 7 blocks...If I missed it I would have had to wait an extra hour and catch the last train to Layton....So I started running. The frontrunner station is in the most ghetto part of Salt Lake City...It's right next to the homeless shelter and the UTA bus station....as I was running I noticed signs on the sides of buildings that read "If you see any drug deals call this number 555-5555" so this area is definitely known for its ghettoness...

I began noticing that people were staring at me as I was awkwardly running by to catch the train... I then began to worry for fear that someone would try to mug me, or worse yet, a gang of homosexuals would rape my fragile heterosexual behind...this caused me to run even faster. As I turned the last corner I saw the frontrunner a block away. I looked at my watch, it was 10:24...I didn't know if I was going to make it, I had at least 300 yards left to run...As I crossed the last road and approached the parking lot of the station the frontrunner blew it's horns and began to move. I missed it!!!!! I was super annoyed because now I would be sitting around in a terrible part of town for another hour. What was I going to do? I looked around hoping to find maybe a cool girl that I could pass the hour chatting up with, maybe I could make this night all worthwhile. So for that short moment my hopes were high, I looked around and saw that no one was nearby. It was just me in a big open area with lots of empty benches and lights overhead. So I sat down and decided that I would listen to music on my IPOD to pass the time. I abruptly found out that the batteries were dead. Then I remembered I had brought a book that I'm currently reading, "The Pillars of the Universe" by Ken Follet. I opened it up and started to read.

While reading I kept hearing strange noises. The noises sounded like someone was running around kicking up dirt or sand. Each time I heard it I looked up, but nothing was seen. I then realized that I was alone, there was no one around...and I was hearing strange noises. I put my book away and started pacing back and forth, frantically searching in the shadows, behind benches, and the square garbage cans for something, someone. The thoughts of getting mugged and butt raped returned. What would I do if someone was here to harm me and and my precious little behind? As I continued to look around I felt as if I was having a panic attack! Then I heard a different noise, something distinct, something easily recognizable. The sound I heard was a man's voice.

"Hey, you! Yeah You, come here! I need your help!"

I realized the voice was coming from an area I had not even thought about checking, it was coming from the lowered area where the tracks of the frontrunner are located. I looked to where the voice was coming from and I saw the shadow of a man.

By this time I had chills up and down my spine...If this guy thought I'd go over there in the dark to talk to him he was crazy. He continued asking for help, so I told him to come out to the lights and then I'd hear what he had to say and what he wanted. As we were conversing, (more like yelling due to the distance between us), I walked closer.

I began to calm down a little, I figured he was just a homeless guy asking for some change or something. By now I was about 20 feet away from him, I was not going to get any closer. At this time the man said something very interesting,

"Something is going to happen that will affect you personally."

I thought, oh great not just a homeless guy but a nutty, schizo homeless. As I was walking backwords to return to my book I replied "Oh yeah? and what is that?" He realized that I was going to go back to my book and ignore him. This is when he inched forward and stuck his head out and gave me a response...Whatever the response was I didn't hear it, I was too shocked by the frightful sight that stood before me. This was a nightmare, in no way could this terror be happening. It was madness! A fleshless monstrosity had been talking to me! Gravity gave way and I fainted to the ground.

That was a first, have you ever been so scared that you fainted? I didn't think so!...anyway when I came to, the horror had not passed and let me alone, in fact the thing was hovering over me! I frantically looked around and noticed that I was under a bridge, the frontrunner station was just to the left of me about a hundred yards away...If I could just kick this thing away from me I could run back to the lights, there had to be someone around that could help me!....The thing's fleshless slimy hands were covering my mouth so I couldn't yell out for help. After trying to break free from him for what seemed to be hours, I got tired and gave up...I began breathing heavily and tried to calm down when he spoke...

"I am not going to hurt you, in fact you'll be on that next train home I promise."

I spoke up while his hand was still covering my mouth...

"Who are you?"




"My name is Obed and I'm a Reptoid."



TO BE CONTINUED........



(my retelling of this crazy but true story has ended up being longer than I had initially wanted, due to the importance of the details that you all must understand and know....anyway that is why it's "to be continued" so sorry, i have to go to bed.)
